Photos: Rockies vs. Dodgers — June 11, 2011
The Rockies lost 11-7 to the Los Angeles Dodgers Saturday night at Coors Field. Question is, have they lost their momentum? That's a commodity they have searched for longer than they would care to think about. Finally, after seven weeks of futility, they had strung together a three-game winning streak going into Saturday's game against the Dodgers at Coors Field. There will be no four-game winning streak. The Dodgers overcame a stirring five-run Rockies rally in the eighth that amounted to an instant replay of the Dodgers' ninth-inning rally the night before. But there are no moral victories in major-league baseball, especially when you lose not only a game, but your starting pitcher.

Anyone who's jumped off a haystack or played on a trampoline, knows the pleasurable feeling of weightlessness, wherein there are, for a fleeting moment, no more sagging body parts.
Felix Baumgartner, a 43-year old Austrian military parachutist, intentionally jumped from a capsule 24 miles up, on Oct 14, thus certainly knowing weightlessness for a decent amount of time. And what a fascinating lot of physics the man who fell from space experienced!
And who was the 25th President of France?
Well, I guess this is information for TV's "Jeopardy", but it was the physicist Dominique Francois Jean Arago, born 50 years after the birth of another statesman/scientist – Ben Franklin.[Ref.1].
Some may remember from high school a demonstration called "Arago's disk", wherein a copper or aluminum disc is spun underneath an ordinary compass, and the compass needle begins to swing round also. This is just one of the many experiments Arago did.
You had a lot to say on the WAMC listener comment line this week on everything from Joe Donohue's interview with Jesse Ventura, Republican Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney's '47 %' remarks, and several of our WAMC commentators. Segments of these comments ran Friday Sept. 21 on Midday Magazine and Northeast Report.
In the 19th century, Joseph Henry, first director of the Smithsonian, refused any salary increases, saying that public servants were there to serve, rather than to enrich themselves.
Now, there are two hospitals in Kingston NY – the Benedictine Hospital, a Catholic hospital (founded on its present site in 1906), and the non-sectarian Kingston hospital (founded in 1894), institutions in which, over the years, my family and I have had sundry procedures, such as appendix, hernias, and so on.
Lucretius, Roman poet, was born around 99 BCE.
Sometimes people are remembered for one thing – and with Lucretius it was his long poem "De Rerum Natura" -- "on natural things".
Settling into my seat on an Airbus, I wished that the 8-hour return from Europe could be more like 3 1/2 hours, as I'd heard the SSTs used to take.
Those SSTs -- Tupolevs and Concordes -- first flew in the late 60's. The Tupolev was first, in 1968, and then the Concordes in 1969. The latter went for 31 years without a crash – with the huge exception of the French Concorde that hit a piece of metal on the runway while taking off from Paris and crashed in flames, killing all on board.
In an earlier essay I mentioned that there was no reason why pure scientists such as myself shouldn't have a say in politics -- particularly since law-making is sometimes regarded, wrongly I believe, as being just in the province of those trained in law.
The word 'etiquette' reminds me of vicarage ladies discussing which way their pinkies ought to point when holding a tea-cup, but I use the word here with respect to the problem of friends who don't, can't or won't, respond.
I don't email much, and typically my 'you have mail' box may have anything between zero and three new emails each morning. I know people who apparently receive as many as 80 a day, excluding advertising! (How such a phenomenon occurs I'm not sure. They must be very talkative.)
There are at least two famous airlifts associated with World War II. In 1942, when the last route from India to China was cut off, FDR made the decision that it was imperative China receive armaments and supplies for the Army Air Force in China, which was struggling to pin down Japanese forces. Both the US and UK began the appallingly dangerous air lift over the Himalayas -- from Assam (famous for its tea) in India to Kunming in China.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

First lip gloss ever purchased and has been a favorite ever since. My favorite color is Tickled Pink. It's perfect! And it's SUPER CHEAP! I recently purchased again for 1.99 each.
This is the best lip gloss ever! The consistency and texture is perfect, not sticky at all. Its as moisturizing as chapstick without the nasty taste and it really makes my lips feel really smooth. Its not very long lasting but I really don't mind reapplying because I just love this lip gloss. Theres also a great selection of different shades but I can always count on the clear to supplement any lipstick shade that I have.
More reviews by laydeefreakish
I only purchase this when they have the specials (which is pretty often) I love the golddigger color :) its light with a hint of gold. Also this lipgloss isn't too sticky and it lasts a while for me :D
i really love these. the only reason i bought them was because they were on special 2 for $4, so i figured even if they sucked it wasn't a big lose. i bought ten of them. and wow!, i am pleasantly surprised. the colors look great and they last very well on me. will repurchase for sure.
I think this is the best lip gloss I've used. It is not sticky at all. I love Peach Fizz! It could use a little more shine, but I guess that's why most others are so sticky bc of the shine element in it. But overall, I think this is the best one out there, very moisturizing, goes on like chap stick. I have it in Chocolate too ( I think that's the name! ) and it lasts a long time. Look for sales in Avon, sometimes you can get it for 1.99 or 2.99. I just hate you can't see the shades in the catalog in person until you order, but luckily these two worked for me. I think Peach Fizz would work for any skin tone.
Another one I love, the texture is great, they smell so good -like chocolatey- and not sticky at all, and has a great feeling on the lips, the color amazing, my favorite is darling pink, like pinkish with some golden reflections, awesome I have another color, I think peach fizz, but is not so good because it leaves some sort of glittery thing as it fades and I don´t like that, but overall it´s a great product for the price.
Oh! and for those of you who say it doesn´t last half an hour, well duh!! it´s not a long lasting lipstick, it´s gloss and it´s ok for it to fade away...
I'm so impressed by this lipgloss! I have only one colour so far - Cantaloupe, a coral without shimmer - but I plan to get more colours. The consistency of the lipgloss is more like a slick gel than a sticky gloss, which I've never experienced in any other glosses that I've tried. The colour goes on creamy sheer, but it shows up enough for a pop on my lips. I also love the scent, it's a mild vanilla frosting that's really subtle. The wear is average, but at this low price, I don't mind reapplying often - I've owned this gloss for only a month and I find that it's my go-to lip product as I run out the door. I bought mine through an Avon rep for $2.99 Cdn. I'm looking to buy more non-glittery neutrals in this gloss for everyday wear. Edit Sept 09: I went crazy and bought 4 more of these and I love them all! I have: Darling Pink (muted light pink with gold micro-shimmer), Classic Nude (beige cream), Retro Red (pinkish red cream), Vintage Vamp (dark purple maroon cream). They all apply beautifully and the last 3 colours I bought were Glazewear "Extreme" which I gathered meant that they were more pigmented and more moisturizing. I would definitely buy more when these go on sale again.
I have 2 buttered rum and honey. I like both of them and the color goes on rich and smooth. The scent lovely and the staying power is good but not fabulous. But not many lip glosses have great staying power so its better than most.
wanted to add that the reg glazewear is awesome. i have many clors and love them all. id buy more deff. i just didnt like the natural impact gloss.
in the tube the color (boysenberry) looked so pretty. but when i put it on there was no color =(. this is the natural impact glazewear brand. if you want a sheer gloss then buy this,but if you want color with the gloss dont get it get the regular glazewear.

8 Spring Getaways for Retirees
Spring break may entice college students to assuage their winter woes with a well-timed vacation, but it's also a popular time for retirees to get away as well. Of course, seniors and students aren't exactly headed to the same destinations.
According to Priscilla Reilly, director of public relations for Grand Circle Travel, a global travel agency headquartered in Boston, retirees seek warmer climates, but they are looking for cultural experiences as well. This means they're more likely to spring for a trip to Riviera Maya, Mexico than hitting up the bar scene in neighboring Cancun, Mexico.
"There are smaller crowds, fewer lines at sites and one can often get better prices both from the tour operators as well as locally," Reilly says.
To help seniors plan their end-of-winter vacation, MainStreet rounded up some of the best destinations for retirees.

With this much power on tap, however, it's very easy to get the rear end loose. Under full throttle, the insane power can turn the SL's Dunlops into dust on dry pavement, even at speeds approaching the triple-digit mark. And it's not for a lack of size - the rear tires are enormous at 325/30 ZR-20. (Up front, the SL Black Series wears nineteen-inch wheels, wrapped in tires measuring 265/35 ZR-19. The larger rear wheels and tires were chosen for extra stability under power.) And even when the SL's tires are able to put down the full power, the rear end walks left to right in a sinusoidal oscillation - one AMG engineer explained the phenomenon as a result of a resonant interference between the axles and limited-slip differential - we prefer to think of it as the result of the earth's crust being torn open.
Mercedes predicts that the SL65 AMG Black Series will accelerate to 62 mph in 3.8 seconds - but with traction a limiting factor even at 60 mph, that figure does little to convey the true thrust you feel from behind the wheel. Perhaps it'll help to note that the SL has to be electronically restrained to 199 mph.
At that point, AMG engineers admit, the SL is nearing its top speed anyway. The enormous fenders and aggressive aerodynamics create more drag than the standard SL - which would be able to achieve around 220 mph with this engine.
According to AMG boss Volker Mornhinweg, Black Series stands for lighter, faster, and more powerful. We've learned about faster and more powerful, but the SL Black is also significantly lighter than the regular SL65. AMG was able to shave 210 pounds from the car. Unlike all other SLs, which are convertibles, the Black Series wears a fixed carbon-fiber roof with integral roll bars and a pop-up rear spoiler. Additionally, the hood, front fenders, and front and rear valances are made of carbon fiber - the only standard SL body parts are the doors and side mirrors. (European-specification SL Black Series realize an additional 340 lb weight loss by deleting the side airbags, replacing the door panels with carbon fiber, and using one-piece racing buckets in place of the U.S.-spec car's electrically adjustable sport seats.)
Additional weight savings comes from the elimination of the standard SL's electronic braking system and Active Body Control. Instead, the Black Series uses conventional hydraulics to actuate enormous calipers and rotors: 15.4-inch cross-drilled rotors in the front, straddled by six-piston aluminum calipers; 14.2-inch cross-drilled rotors in the rear, each with four-piston calipers. The SL's active suspension system has been replaced with much lighter, simpler coilover-type suspension with conventional steel springs. Surprisingly, eliminating ABC doesn't strip the SL of its fabulous body control, as the Black Series demonstrates almost no body roll or pitch.

2011 ASF Grant Outcomes Report
ASF is committed to giving talented young investigators with cutting-edge ideas the support they need to get their research off the ground. Since 2010, the Autism Science Foundation has funded 21 pre- and postdoctoral training awards. Our yearlong training grants are designed to help young investigators attract major funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and encourage them to dedicate their careers to advancing our understanding of autism.
When surveyed, each of our past grantees reported that the ASF training award was the first autism research grant they had won. Further, they all planned to remain in the autism field, with 83% reporting that our award increased their likelihood of pursuing an autism research career. Two young investigators said the award increased their commitment to specific research areas and confidence in their ability to secure funding and lead future research.
At the end of every grant period, we ask the grantees to share the outcomes of the funding they received. Read highlights from the 2011 cohort below:
The 2011 cohort undertook projects in the following areas
· Prelinguistic indicators of ASD in infants
· Social skills interventions in public schools
· Genetics, cellular and molecular mechanisms of ASD
· Language development in ASD
Young scientists funded by ASF in 2011 have made significant contributions to the autism field
· 100% of grantees reported ASF grants assisted their efforts to translate basic discoveries into potential methods of diagnosis or treatment
· 40% of grantees said ASF-funded research resulted in improved methods of risk assessment related to prevention or earlier, more effective intervention
· 40% of grantees said ASF grants facilitated development of an individualized approach to treatment
· 40% of grantees reported empirically validating an intervention strategy with help of ASF funding
· 20% of grantees used ASF training grants to facilitate the dissemination or implementation of a health or education related service into a broader community setting
· 100% of grantees reported the ASF training award informed their strategy or thinking for a future grant
Research funded by ASF in 2011 has resulted in
· 2 peer-reviewed publications
· 4 manuscripts in preparation or submitted for publication in peer-reviewed journals
· 7 oral presentations and 3 poster presentations at national conferences
· 5 workshops and community presentations
Research originally funded by ASF in 2011 will continue to be supported by
· 1 NIH training grant
· 3 Autism Speaks Postdoctoral Fellowships in Translational Research

text: Various reports coming from Texas Motor Speedway today has informed us that track speeds will be greatly reduced this year for Round 6. How is Formula Drift planning to do this? Well, they are going to move the front start line way closer to that strange turn 1 entry. I for one hate this idea and would love to see as much speed as possible coming into that first turn. Regardless of where Formula Drift finalizes the turn one entry point I can only imagine that Round 6 in Texas won't be as much of a disaster as the 2013 event. In case you forgot, 2013 wound up with the first ever overturned judged ruling in the sports history, an insane amount of dead time due to protested calls, and a record number of protested submitted during one event weekend.

Not a speed record, I'm afraid. However, after 17 months, 2 large cuttings of mine have finally rooted, and are growing like crazy. Just goes to show that most of the time, these plants want to live!! I almost threw them out, they were so wrinkled. I have another troublemaker that's going on 12 months. Root nubs, somewhat wrinkled, but still firm. I'm thinking about grafting this one, since it started to grow, stopped, and has done nothing for months and I'd rather not lose it. Anyone know a skilled grafter in So Cal? Otherwise, I may send it to Luc at FC. I'm trying my first grafting experiments myself right now, but I'd rather have a skilled person handle this one! |

hi Daogirl! Have you asked Mike Atkinson or. Cesar Monrel.. They are close to you and are knowledgeable about grafting...Hao is another..... Diane Gottie has some torturials as well on grafting.. It is quite easy.. I did it!! Yes!! Lol!!! Luc passed a year ago and Tex and Carol are doing all of the grafting. So they can still help you... Are you on FB! If you are, ask at "growers" Good luck!!! Laura |
Thanks, Laura. I'll ask Mike or Caesar on FB. I did know about Luc, too - just a brain short-circuit, apparently. It's too bad I couldn't make it to the SCPS meeting - I could've asked for advice in person from Tex! |
BTW- I just sent you a friend request on Facebook, too! -Hollis |

Down here, it's easier to find a gun than it is to find a fucking parking spot
from Chance The Rapper (Ft. Lili K. & Nate Fox) – Pusha Man/Paranoia Lyrics on Genius
Despite the City of Chicago's strict gun laws, the state of Illinois's gun laws allow for any person to buy guns however they please with only one transaction on record, resulting in mass numbers of guns being illegally sold to gangbangers.
Illinois's gun laws make it easier to get a gun than it is to find a parking spot in Chicago, where in the winter, residents use a practice known as "dibs" to save spots they've shoveled in front of their house.

Sesame Honey Candy (Pasteli)
This Recipe Is:
A traditional Greek confection, sesame honey candy combines the simplest of ingredients – gently toasted sesame seeds, unrefined sea salt, and honey – for a natural treat. An alternative to overly sweet candies, sesame honey candy is wholesome but should, like any sweet, be eaten as a rare treat.
Prep: 10 minutes | Cook: 10 minutes | Total Time: 20 minutes
3 cups
hulled sesame seeds
1 cup
unrefined sea salt to taste
olive oil, for greasing the baking sheet
- Generously grease a baking sheet with olive oil and set aside.
- Heat a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet over medium-high flame until it becomes hot to the touch.
- Pour three cups sesame seeds into the hot pan and stir them continuously with a wooden spoon until they're well-toasted and golden-brown in color – about four to six minutes.
- Stir honey and a generous dash of unrefined sea salt into the toasted sesame seeds until they become well-coated and the mixture stiffens.
- Pour the mixture of honey and sesame seeds onto your greased baking sheet and pat down and smooth out the mixture with a wooden spoon.
- Score the candy into pieces of 1/4-inch by 1-inch and set the pan aside until the candy is cool enough to handle comfortably.
- When cool to the touch, but still warm enough to be malleable, grease your fingers with olive oil and roll the pieces of honey candy into small, round logs.
- Allow to cool completely before serving.

text: The Stealth wiki last edited by TDK_1997 on 05/13/13 02:12PM View full history OriginUnchanged and WickedIn the myriad of exotic planets in our universe a special entity would be born from the planet Gryx. The young girl would be rejected by her family and people due to her being a mutant. She was never given a name. With the dangers of surviving alone, she was forced to raise herself in isolation. Living past the expectations of her people, now a teenager, the girl was given to the power hungry Dominators as part of an invasion of Earth. Her people thought themselves spared as the girl became an offering to be meant as Gryx support for the Dominators' walanr. She was detained on their prison named Starlag, there she soon befriended another prisoner, an unnamed Durlan.CreationStealth was created by Alan Grant and Barry Kitson.Character EvolutionL.E.G.I.O.N.The prison of Starlag turned out to be the catalyst for a small rebellion against the Dominators. Their leaders were the dimension jumping Earth-man Adam Strange and the genius Coluan Vril Dox II. Stealth, along with Durlan, Garryn Bek, Lyrissa Mallor, and Strata, joined Dox in helping to defeat the Dominators' plans. After figuring that the girl had need of a name, and considering her gifts, they coined her "Stealth".My Name is Stealth!Realizing that they had won the fight but still had lost so much personal freedoms, the group decided to accompany Vril Dox II to his home planet of Colu. There they were convinced by Dox to help him free his planet from the control of the Computer Tyrants. Using their mutual determination, and having worked well as a team before, they were successful in shutting down the Computer Tyrants' complex mainframe.Dox laid out plans to form a new galactic police agency, a force as powerful, diverse, and reputable as the once great Green Lantern Corps. Feeling uncomfortable with the idea, Stealth and the others were unsure at first to accept Dox's offer, but they agreed that Dox was to dangerous to not be kept under close watch. The new team traveled to Bek's homeworld of Cairn, known galaxy wide as the "drug world." They quickly deposed the chief drug lord and secured the allegiance of Cairn's police.The Happy Family..NOT!Unfortunately, in a moment of weakness, Stealth allowed her feral instincts to take control, leading her to rape and nearly kill Vril Dox II. She became pregnant and gave birth to their child, Lyrl Dox. Though their relationship has stood on unstable footing ever since this incident, they eventually reconciled. Stealth took her son and hid on Voorl when Starro took over L.E.G.I.O.N.She died defending her son from rogue L.E.G.I.O.N robots.Blackest NightStealth was resurrected as a member of the Black Lantern Corps during Blackest Night. She attacked and killed a member of the Sinestro Corps, who's ring eventually went for a brief time to Vril Dox II.

In 1999, Dave Sobelman was serving burgers and pitchers of beer to blue collar workers in the rough and rugged Menomonee Valley. With the checks he cashed on weekends from the humble factory workers he began ordering some of the finest ingredients for this burgers - locally baked country-butter rolls and the best beef available.
Then one day, Dave walked out of his burger bar and saw a newspaper stand for the Shepherd Express. The cover story highlighted the Top 5 "Pub Grub" locations in Milwaukee and Dave's did not make the list. This omission was a turning point in Sobelman's history.
After seeing the article, Dave called the author of the story and invited him over for a burger. The local writer came into Sobelman's the next day and sat at the bar, ordered a PLAIN burger, and a beer. That very next week, Dave Sobelman had his own feature article on the front page of the Shepherd Express praising the burgers at Sobelman's Pub and Grill as the absolute best in Milwaukee.
Dave became wild with the possibility of fame after seeing his name and acclaimed burger in print. So with the help of this wife - Melanie - Dave began placing his energies into continuously providing the most quality ingredients and best tasting menu he could create for the public - and of course this menu included drinks. Dave's location is after all, a storied Schlitz tavern.
It's really not what's inside the glass that makes Sobelman's Pub and Grill's signature bloody mary stand out. The drink, or "Bloody Masterpiece" as it's affectionally called (not to be confused with the "Baconado" or "Crown Mary"), arrives with 13 garnishes. Brussels sprouts, celery, sausage, cheese, and even a cheeseburger slider stick out of the drink like an edible bouquet. The creative drink has garnered many fans, not to mention a feature on Good Morning America.
That slider garnish serves as an introduction to Sobelman's menu. The husband-and-wife team will proudly tell you that they have always had the best burgers in Milwaukee, and they back up the claim with a 2013 Readers' Choice Award from Milwaukee Magazine and three other local Best Burger Awards in the last 3 plus years. Each Certified Prime Black Angus patty is sandwiched between a fresh baked country-butter roll and rests beneath toppings such as homemade chili, diced jalapeño, or The Piggyback's pork belly, which comes drizzled in bourbon sauce. These burgers have often been imitated around the city, but never duplicated. Aside from burgers, the cooks craft chicken cordon bleu sandwiches and host a Friday fish fry with beer-battered cod.
Despite the creativity shown on the menu, Sobelman's Pub and Grill's original location on St. Paul Avenue has a timeless element. The Sobelmans make great use of their building and they've kept original Schlitz tavern elements such as beer-barrel tables and strict adherence to the law of gravity in the revived Menomonee Valley neighborhood. Simply put, Sobelman's Pub and Grill is Classic Milwaukee.
Behind State Street Brats' charming Old-World half-timbered façade, a convivial bar-and-grill atmosphere welcomes visitors to lively feastings of pub fare. With a special focus on sausages and cheesy meals, the menu celebrates the best-loved staples of Midwestern cuisine. Chefs serve up brats two traditional ways, with the Sheboygan-style white brat soaked in beer and red brats split open and grilled for a smoky flavor. Patrons can customize their orders at the condiment bar by slathering on a wide selection of toppings, such as tomatoes and sauerkraut, and picking the best flavor from a spread of local mustards, including Koops, Silver Spring, and Mustard Girl.
A two-time finalist for Madison Magazine's Best Sports Bar, with a gold in 2011 and silver in 2012, State Street Brats relishes the company of happy regulars and avid sports fans there to catch games on the bar's 25 TVs. Extensive cable and digital subscriptions keep crowds entertained with professional football and baseball or collegiate action. Four evenings a week, the second floor comes to life with a live DJ and a packed dance floor. Bartenders also keep fans on their toes with themed specials, such as Flip Night Tuesday, where patrons can flip a coin to determine how much their drinks cost.
Conceived by Las Vegas restaurateur Mark DiMartino, Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery evokes Ireland by way of Vegas, with waitresses dressed in plaid mini kilts shouldering trays of chilled beer and pub fare. Like an enchilada stuffed with four-leaf clovers, the eatery's Irish nachos interpret a south-of-the-border classic in a Celtic way, slathering potato chips in cheese sauce and seasoned ground beef; alternatively, pot roast and vegetables simmer traditionally in the Olde Dublin Irish stew's Guinness-infused beef stock. Barkeeps pour a full bar's worth of wine, cocktails, and beer, which surfaces in bottles, bombers, and multi-brew mixes such as the Blue Moon and Guinness combination. High-definition TVs glow with a ceaseless parade of professional and college baseball, basketball, and hockey, and live bands add to the entertainment smorgasbord on Friday and Saturday nights.
Pub 22, a Kenosha watering hole that opened in early 2012, serves up classic pub snacks paired with cold drinks. The spot's cooks toss chicken wings with piquant sauces, fry fresh potato chips for pub nachos, and grill burgers to serve with helpings of fries or tater tots. Local bands frequently take the stage for live shows.
Within its storied confines, The Ivanhoe presents hearty cuisine drawing from classic Irish and American pub traditions alongside a selection of 26 brews and a focus on lively community. A bountiful drink menu holds the secret access code to an international cabal of crisp brews, indexing aliases such as Spotted Cow ($4), Smithwick's ($4.50), and the notoriously elusive Blue Moon ($4). Sample one of more than 100 whiskeys, absorb a glass of wine, or sip a martini such as the tongue-tickling Snickers ($8). A robust food menu details singular starters such as the wasabi-laced sesame seared tuna ($10) with greens in a honey-soy-ginger sauce, as well as Celtic standbys such as the European-style fish and chips ($10). The Jameson burger ($9) extends a transatlantic bridge of onion rings smothered in Jameson sauce and the relieved tears of stranded sailors.
The Wooden Nickel Sports Bar & Grill could easily throw out the tables and chairs, burn the menus, and close down the bar—even then, people would have plenty to do and see. While diners feast on burgers, they bask in the glow of televisions broadcasting sports from ESPN GamePlan, NFL Sunday Ticket, and Fox Sports Network. Trivia competitions bring friendly rivalries into the eatery on weeknights, where players can match minds to win free drinks and bragging rights at the next Mensa track meet. The kitchen's pub grub mixes well with draft and bottled beers, which wait in the wings to swoop in and extinguish thirst pangs or rinse burger residue from hands.

Adventist Hinsdale Hospital plans to sell its building, at 220 E. Ogden Ave., which houses two rehabilitation programs and assorted hospital offices.
The building, which is east of the Shell gas station on Ogden Avenue, is home to a program for pediatric patients and a rehabilitation center for cardiac patients who are continuing their exercise routine after recovering from treatment.
The Adventist Paulson Pediatric Rehabilitation Center provides physical, speech and other kinds of therapy to children under 18. The center will continue to operate from another location that has yet to be decided, said spokesperson Julie Busch.
But the HeartCare Rehab Fitness Center in the same building is closing.
After people who have had a heart attack or cardiac procedure are treated at the hospital, they follow a 12-week exercise program where they are closely monitored by professional staff, Busch said.
After the 12 weeks, the hospital encourages them to continue an exercise program on their own. One place to do that has been the hospital's cardiac rehabilitation center on Ogden.
"It's something like going to a health club," Busch said.
There are treadmills and a running track, but there's also nurse and exercise physiologists staffing the center. The hospital also allowed its employees to use the facility, which gets about 300 visits a week.
"We have about 150 active users of this service," Busch said. "But it has been operating at a significant loss for more than 10 years."
Donations from the Hinsdale Hospital Foundation have helped keep the rehabilitation center running. The building, however, is in need of costly repairs, Busch said.
"With the changes in the health care industry, we can't continue to sustain the service, especially at an off-site piece of real estate," Busch said.
Adventist Midwest Health will begin to market the property soon, Busch said. Hospital services there are expected to end in mid-July.
She knows a group of people have become friends by working out together there for 15 years or so.
"We recognize it is a very close-knit group of people," Busch said.
Alternatives are being sought for the users of the fitness center.
The Oak Brook Park District, for example, allows residents to use its fitness center for $35 a month, after a $100 enrollment fee. Nonresidents pay $44 a month.
Users of the HeartCare Rehab Fitness center were charged $70 a month, or $70 for 10 visits, Busch said.
LaGrange Memorial Hospital also operates a rehabilitation center, but Busch said there are not a lot of openings there.

More than 50 years ago, Mr. John E. Connelly set his sights on cleaning up Pittsburgh's polluted three rivers and returning them to their former glory as the Steel City's heart and soul. As then-treasurer of the Allegheny County Sanitary Authority, John was in a prime position to complete his ambition. With the belief that he could get the public engaged and committed to a cleanup, he decided to give the local people access to the rivers via boat tours, knowing the city's characteristic architecture as viewed from the rivers would engender a genuine appreciation for the region's waterways and environment.
After getting his nephew, Captain Jack Goessling, on board, John purchased a 100-passenger fishing boat they would christen the Gateway Clipper, which would later launch from Monongahela Wharf for the first of its many pleasure cruises. Today, with Gateway Clipper Fleet, his dream of engaging locals and visitors in the city's history and waterways thrives with a fleet that has grown to five boats capable of accommodating 2,500 guests. Through the years, the fleet has ferried more than 25 million passengers, treating them to dinner cruises, sightseeing tours, and entertainment jaunts along the clean, blue waters of Pittsburgh's three rivers.
Adrenaline flows freely inside Laser Storm Pittsburgh's laser-tag battleground as teams of players wage infrared war over objectives and bases. In addition to hosting laser battles, Laser Storm offers an arcade filled with skee-ball, three big-screen arcade games, and other ticket-spewing machines. Any tickets won in the arcade can be used to purchase prizes from a well-stocked booth or attached to a fishing line to lure laser-tag enemies out of their hiding spots.
At Fun Fest Entertainment Center, friends and families come together for everything from bowling and birthday parties to games of pool or karaoke crooning over a few drinks. Five days a week, a cosmic bowling experience enhanced by neon lights, thumping music, and fog machines transports guests into a parallel universe where people must knock down pins before they sprout legs and start to dance. Adjacent to the bowling lanes, the Center?s arcade lures thrill seekers with novel amusements including air hockey, a giant Connect Four game, and a karaoke machine that can record performances on DVD. Incandescent murals of planetary systems and supernovas surround guests as they take aim at intergalactic enemies in the darkened corridors of the Cyber Quest Laser Tag arena. In between gaming, players can refuel on draft and bottled beer and food such as pizza, burgers, and chicken wings.
Inflated structures and games fill the climate-controlled environs of the numerous BounceU locations that speckle the nation. At each site, staff members closely monitor all activities as little ones traverse obstacle courses and slides. The crew also invites parents to join in on the fun, letting them bounce alongside their kids or make sweeping edicts from atop a bouncy-castle throne. In addition to open sessions, the indoor-play haven sets the stage for the Preschool Playdate program, where instructors lead games and activities. Special events include family-bounce night, which lets parents join in the bouncing or relax in the party room and do grownup things, such as eat marshmallows with a knife and fork.
In theory, a family could visit Fun Fore All once a week for two months and always find something new to do. During one visit, they might putt their way past waterfalls on two 18-hole mini golf courses; during the next, they might race around the go-kart track or use a round of bumper boats to decide who has to pay that month's yacht insurance.
Fun Fore All offers both seasonal and year-round attractions. The seasonal options include batting cages, Mini Golf, bumper boats, Go-Karts, for budding rock climbers or anyone looking for a challenge, there's 26-feet of rock to climb, and the Kiddie Rides include Mini Tea Cups, a Happy Swing and the Kiddie Coaster. The year-round attractions include an arcade, Ballocity?a three-story play area outfitted with 30-plus interactive features, including a four-story slide and guests can stay properly fueled for all this action, too, thanks to a snack bar stocked with sandwiches, pizza, wings, and wraps.

Rutgers Scarlet Knights (10-18)
@Notre Dame Fighting Irish (16-11)
Wednesday, February 25
Joyce Center
Attendance: None
Notre Dame
South Bend, IN (Sports Network) - Luke Harangody registered a double-double with 20 points and 15 rebounds, as the Notre Dame Fighting Irish slipped past the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, 70-65, in Big East play at the Joyce Center.
Harangody finished the game 7-of-25 from the floor and 6-of-8 at the foul line, as Notre Dame (16-11, 7-8 BE) won for the fourth time in five games. Tory Jackson added 18 points and four assists to the mix, while Kyle McAlarney had 13 points and six boards.
Mike Rosario poured in 20 points to lead the way for Rutgers (10-18, 1-14), which dropped its sixth decision in a row. Anthony Farmer turned in 12 points and four assists, while Corey Chandler posted 10 points in the setback.
Rutgers led 35-27 at the half, as it shot 53.6 percent from the floor, including 5-of-12 from long distance, over the first 20 minutes of play.
Notre Dame rebounded in the second stanza and led by as many as 12 points before Rutgers used a late 9-0 spurt to make things interesting. Trailing 65-62, Rosario missed a three-point with 12 seconds left for Rutgers and Harangody then sealed the five-point win with a pair of free throws in the closing moments.
The Irish outscored the Knights, 16-1, at the foul line and that played a big part in the outcome tonight.

So, here I am, and the Colt is back home. So, the wife met me at the airport with her G26. Problem is, she only has an IWB made by Don Hume.
So, I'm pocket carrying it, in the holster to protect the trigger.
Here's a pic of it in my right front pocket. A little bulky, but it's totally possible to pocket carry a G 26.

I cannot believe I'm writing this, but driving the Accent reminds me of driving a 1980s Mercedes-Benz 190E. Okay, I may be hungry and suffering from low blood sugar, but I'm not totally insane. Let me first explain that, being the most ludicrously overengineered small sedan in the history, wrapped in a stunning body with the best proportions of any four-door car ever, the W201-chassis Mercedes 190E has earned a permanent spot in the Jason Cammisa Automotive Hall of Fame.
OK, now back to the insanity: when you drive a 190E, it feels like it weighs three tons and has a 7-liter V-12 under the hood. In reality, the car was a featherweight at 2700 pounds, and it was powered by a 2.3-liter four-cylinder.
Likewise, when you get into a Hyundai Accent, you think, "wow, is this really an entry-level economy car?" It feels so much more substantial than that -- and upon closer inspection, Hyundai pulled a lot of the same tricks that Mercedes did thirty years ago. The four-banger is smoothed by a flywheel that feels like it weighs 150 pounds, so it's slow to rev but hard to stall and smooth beyond its cylinder count. The long-throw, light-effort shifter feels spring-loaded so that even the limpest of wrists can easily engage the next gear. The steering uses a slow ratio and is lazy to self-correct, giving the feeling of a land-yacht-size luxury car. The suspension is soft and progressive, using lots of travel to absorb big bumps that would trip up sportier suspensions.
And the Accent is really sharp looking. It doesn't come close to the timeless, elegant design of the 190E, but not much does (and that includes all of Mercedes' current models). But the mere fact that I can reasonably compare an entry-level Hyundai to a Mercedes -- even a 30-year-old Mercedes -- speaks volumes about how far cars have come in the past three decades.
Jason Cammisa, West Coast Editor
Count me among the Accent fans in the office. I agree with Jason that the Accent feels more substantial than it is. There's a lot of storage space in the hatch area, and there's adequate legroom for passengers in the rear seat. I wouldn't want to drive an Accent (or any other B-segment car) with four adults on board all the time, but there's adequate power if you keep the six-speed manual transmission in the appropriate gear.
What surprised me most in the Accent is how much better it handled at speed than the larger Elantra sedan. I'm not impressed with the current Elantra sedan on the highway because the steering feels too light and it needs a lot of correction. The Accent's steering is a bit heavier, and the slow ratio matches my expectations for a car in this class. It's not a chore to keep the Accent on course at speeds up to 80 mph, which is rare in this class.
As of today, I prefer the Accent to the Ford Fiesta and the Honda Fit. But there's a revised Toyota Yaris and Nissan Versa, a new Chevrolet Sonic, and a new Kia Rio slated to hit the streets in the near future. Just as the compact class became hugely competitive this spring, the subcompact class is poised for an all-out battle for sales in the coming months. It's never been a better time to shop for a small car in America.
Phil Floraday, Senior Web Editor
I was at the 2011 New York Auto Show in April when Hyundai unveiled the Accent, and I basically yawned. On the show floor at Javits Center, it looked pretty unremarkable. So I was quite surprised when I saw our Accent hatchback test car in our parking structure -- it actually looks good in the real world. It doesn't just look good, it looks great.
It also drives very well, for all the reasons my colleagues have outlined. What we have here is yet another Hyundai model that goes from the bottom of the barrel to the top of the heap in one fell swoop. These sorts of leaps from worst-in-class to vying-to-be-best-in-class are quite rare these days in the wider automotive world, because most cars are, quite simply, pretty darn good. Hyundai has taken stinker after stinker and transformed them into class-leading charmers. First the Sonata mid-size sedan, then the Elantra compact sedan, and now the Accent subcompact. I wouldn't have recommended a single one of them to a friend in their last generation; now, if someone is shopping in those segments, I'd admonish them to be sure to take a test drive at their Hyundai dealer.

Modern Comedy
Channel Guide: Lucy, The One And Only
Channel Guide By Merrill Barr on August 13, 2011 | Comments (6)Lucy! I'm home! An iconic phrase. And one that has become the calling card of a sitcom that changed the face of comedy on television, and television itself for that matter. With the one hundredth anniversary of Lucille Ball's birthday this past weekend, it seems only fitting that we celebrate her iconic sitcom, I Love Lucy. There are very few shows that I look back on and say "man, I wish I was around when that was in the zeitgeist (then again, I never use the word zeitgeist, ever)." But I Love Lucy is a completely different beast. This is a show that I was lucky enough to get into as a child thanks to Nick at Night, and stick with because of its appeal.

I believe some of these are one-day only, though more than once I've been told it's a one-day timespan, and the sale lasts 2-3 days. So these are likely limited time only. Probably.
Daughter of Witches is book #2 in Wrede's Lyra series, and is $1.99 at some retailers for a limited time.
In the oppressive city of Drinn, a trio of magical strangers offers a servant girl the chance of a new life Drinn is not a safe place to be a witch. Ranira knows that better than most, for when she was just a child, the temple guards burned her parents at the stake for practicing magic. Now an indentured servant for a brutal innkeeper, she lives every day with the shame of her parents' alleged crime.
There is no worse time to visit Drinn than during the Midwinter Festival, when the city gates are sealed so that no outsider can witness the temple's secret rituals. And at Ranira's inn, three guests have overstayed their welcome. Attempting to protect Ranira from her master's cruelty, the three reveal their magical powers and attract the attention of the temple guards. Now, to save her new friends from certain death, Ranira must unleash the power that cost her parents their lives.

Hey all:
I've been immersed in McMorrow of late. Reviewing edits of ONCE BURNED (May 2015), beginning to write STRAW MAN (May 2016), rereading the early McMorrow novels that are due to come out in reissue (DEADLINE and BLOODLINE, November 2014). All of these courtesy of my good friends at Islandport Press.
So it was good to hear from my old friend Brandon Blake (PORT CITY SHAKEDOWN, PORT CITY BLACK AND WHITE, PORT CITY KILLSHOT, to come).
The carton was waiting on the back steps when I got home last week. The new trade paperback edition of SHAKEDOWN. A stack of them. I was glad to see my young cop friend from the Portland waterfront again. Brandon is an interesting guy, very different from McMorrow. How so? Blake's flaws are closer to the surface than Jack's. He's not fully formed yet, especially in the first novel, so he tends to learn by trial and error (a dangerous method when he goes up against the bad guys in this one). Where McMorrow is brash and reckless, Blake is serious and considered. When McMorrow wades in first and asks questions later, Blake weighs the situation and then wades in, usually acting on principle. Blake is principled beyond his years.
You can check out the new paperback here, though I'd rather you buy it at your local independent bookstore. If they don't have it, tell them to order a few from Down East Books. Tell them Gerry sent you.

Metro apps need to come from a store. Desktop apps do not. Win 8 on x86 has a desktop anyone can use. WinRT does not (it has a desktop, but it's only available to Office). So WinRT is restricted to store delivered applications.
